Question

The mid - point of the line segment AB is shown in the figure is (4,-3) . then the co-ordinates of A and B are

• A. (8,0) and (o,-6)
• B. (0,8) and (0,-6)
• C. (8,0) and (-6,0)
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A (8,0) and (o,-6)

From figure,we have
Coordinate of $A(x,0)andB(0,y)$
Now using section formula,we have
$4=\frac{x}{2}and-3=\frac{y}{2}$
$\therefore A(8,0)andB(0,-6)$
